The Copenhagen Parliament is asking for public communication and public websites to also be available in English

-

This is just one concrete proposal from a long list of recommendations made by the “Copenhagen Parliament” (Københavnertinget). The citizens selected in the “Copenhagen Parliament” are asking for a more inclusive city, an end to discrimination, a city without cars, and more biodiversity. 

  • “Copenhagen Parliament” is Denmark’s first established citizen council. In January 2023, 36 members were randomly selected based on criteria such as age, gender, level of education, geographical spread, etc. 33% of the members belong to a vulnerable group (physical disability, mental disorder, ethnic minority, etc.). 
  • Members of the Copenhagen Parliament assess issues and make recommendations. It is not the members who design the final solutions and decide whether and, if applicable, how they should be implemented. They will often develop visions, recommendations, ideas, and examples. The process is equivalent to setting up a commission that makes recommendations to politicians.
